英国外科病人每14人中就有1人在三个月后患上慢性疼痛,特别是在矫形或乳房手术后。 One in 14 UK surgery patients develop chronic pain three months later, especially after orthopaedic or breast procedures.

联合王国的一项新研究发现,大约14名接受日间外科手术的病人中有一人三个月后在外科现场出现慢性疼痛,矫形和乳房手术的发病率较高。 A new UK study finds that about one in 14 patients undergoing day-case surgery develop chronic pain at the surgical site three months later, with higher rates in orthopaedic and breast procedures. 早期手术后疼痛、原已存在的疼痛、贫困以及某些族裔背景等因素增加了风险。 Factors like early postoperative pain, pre-existing pain, deprivation, and certain ethnic backgrounds increase risk. 超过三分之一的病人报告手术前疼痛,大约八分之一的人因并发症,特别是复杂的外科手术或潜在的健康问题,重新住院。 Over one-third of patients reported pain before surgery, and about one in eight were readmitted due to complications, especially with complex surgeries or underlying health issues. 尽管有更快恢复和降低费用等好处,但调查结果显示,在疼痛管理和患者选择方面存在差距,需要改进筛查和后续护理。 Despite benefits like faster recovery and lower costs, the findings reveal gaps in pain management and patient selection, calling for improved screening and follow-up care.
